Description

But in IE7 and IE8 it pops up a javascript error "'name' is null or not an object" somewhere in the jquery code. Tested with both 1.5.2 and 1.6.2 (and 'edge')

The example is supposed to populate two dropdown boxes using a (two-layer deep) associative array: the top layer is used to fill the first dropdown box, and when the user selects an item the second layer is used to fill the second dropdown box.

Note that when I insert a 'catch(pseudoError)' as mentioned in #9033, the "'name' is null or not an object" exception is indeed caught at that location, and IE8 does no longer show an error on page load.

But... the dropdowns are not populated, so it does not solve my issue :(
